What happens on the day
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Winter afternoons in Broughton are short, with sunset at about 3:55pm, so winter hog roast days are best kept to lunchtime.
- A date and rough headcount from the home gets things started.
- We look at photos of the garden or car park and suggest a cooking spot.
- The kitchen shares residents’ dietary needs with us.
- On the day the hog roasts outside while residents watch from the lounge or garden.
- After serving, we clear away without disturbing the home.
Getting ready for the day
- Think about shelter for your residents
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

Busy weekends book up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Tell us your date and we will check it: use our quote form.
